Charles, who has said of his sister that “she intrigued the world with her blend of intoxicating sophistication and her sincere touch,” had loaned out the dress and 150 other objects for the world exhibition.

All profits have so far been donated to The Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund.

Calls are now being made for the royal wedding dress to be exhibited at Kensington Palace, where Diana’s eldest son Prince William and his wife Kateare based, with part of the takings being given to one of Diana’s charities.

Designer David, who was also behind the late princess’ iconic strapless black gown that she wore to her first public engagement at the Royal Opera House, has spoken about how he was approached.

“I picked up a call in the studio and she said, ‘It’s me’.She never said ‘Lady Diana’. I always used to say, ‘Hello, Me,'” recalled David.

“She said, ‘I’m just wondering, would you do the honour of designing my wedding gown? I thought, Christ, perhaps it’s a hoax call… All this press that she’s getting married and nobody knows anything and then she rang up and I said, ‘Yeah!'”
